Tropical Mango and Orange Smoothie Bowls
While it seems completely counterintuitive, I always find myself craving giant smoothies in the middle of the winter. There’s something about a refreshing blend of vibrant, nutrient-packed fruit that sounds so appealing this time of year.
Since we’re in the middle of peak citrus season where I live, I wanted to make a smoothie bowl with lots of sweet, juicy oranges, so I blended up these beautiful Tropical Mango and Orange Smoothie Bowls. A bright, tropical combination of oranges, mangoes, and pineapple, combined with anti-inflammatory cinnamon and turmeric, makes these smoothie bowls one of my favorite winter smoothie recipes.
Tropical Mango and Orange Smoothie Bowls
Makes 2 servings
Ingredients:
For the smoothie bowl:
2 bananas, frozen
1 1/2 cups mango, frozen
1 large orange, peeled
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp raw honey
Sprinkle of cinnamon
Sprinkle of turmeric
Splash of coconut or nut milk
For the toppings:
1 banana, thinly sliced
1 small orange, peeled and sliced
Pineapple chunks
Coconut flakes
Pepitas
To make:
In a blender, combine the bananas, mango, orange, vanilla, honey, cinnamon, turmeric, and almond milk. Blend on high until smooth, adding a little more coconut milk if needed to reach a thick, ice-cream like consistency (make sure to only add a small amount of liquid—otherwise the smoothie base will become too runny).
Once smooth, pour the smoothie base into a bowl. Top with banana slices, orange slices, pineapple chunks, coconut flakes, and pepitas. Enjoy!
